beloved by his people, and who is known by the sobriquet of the 'Grand Old Man.' I have now the pleasure of introducing to you a lady beloved in Boston, and known there as the 'Grand Old Woman!' "—[Buffalo Courier. 1"

It is two years Bince the last examination for color blindness was made.

A Keg of Nails.

A Hartford lady tells this true' relation concerning her ancestor, who was a direct descendant of John Eliot, the great missionary and scholar. This lady livsd in New Haven.and had occasion to send to Boston for a number of kegs of nails, New Haven at that time (about 1765) not producing these necessaries. In due time the kegs arrived, and on opening them it was discovered that one was filled with Spanish dollars. The family wrote to the Boston merchant, telling him that one of the kegs held somsthing more valuable than nails. He replied that he had bought them for nails, and his responsibility therewith ended. Well, they were kept among the famiiy treasures for many years untouched and unclaimed until the death of the head of the house, who, in her will, ordered that they be melted and cast into a communion service for the New Haven Church, which was done, and it is still probably in use.—[Hartford Courant.

He Had a Great Joint.

The use of slang is increasing to such an extent that it bids fair to become the universal language before much vaunted Volapuk gets a fair start. Sometimes slang sounds oddly by reason of the surroundings. Last Sunday, for instance, a quite well known, businessman accepted an invitation from the pastor of one of the leading churches to attend his services. It was a somewhat unusual experience for him to be inside of a church, but he seemed to enjoy it and listened to the music and the sermon with rapt attention. After the services had closed he went up to the pulpit and shook hands with his friend, the paBtor. "1 tell you what 'tis, pardner," he remarked, "you've got a great joint here—a great -joint—yes, sir, old man, for a gospel foundry this beats anything I ever landed in. And say now, that sermon of yours was just to the queen's taste. It is a great joint you have here—a great joint."—[St. Paul Pioneer-Press.

'f% Degradation of the Fug. -X

Among the petitioners before the work house board yesterday was amid die-aged woman, neatly dressed in black, and whose appearance gave every indication of refinement. With her was a young and pretty girl, her daughter, who fondled a pug puppy, only a few days old. The woman was an applicant for the release of her son, confined for petit larceny, and had come from St. Louis to secure bis pardon. While sitting in the parlor with several other women awaiting a hearing the mother, taking the pug from her daughter, bared her bosom and nursed the little brute as if it were a babe. The sight was rather Btartling and provoked a hum of comment, but the woman acted as if itwas not at all unusual.—[Cincinnati Eoquirer.

An Economical Millionaire.

It is said that the day "Old Hutch," of Chicago, made $1,000,000 on wheat he entered a Chicago barber shop and asked for a shave. This was a few hours before he made the $1,000,000. Before the barber administered the lather, "Hutch" asked what the tax was to be. The barber replied that the price was 15 cents. "Hutch" said 15 was too much, but that he would give 10. The barber refused to be knocked down, so "Hutch" went across the street and got shaved for a dime. Thus encouraged, he went abroad in the market place and shaved wheat until he made $1,000,000. He is the king of financial razors.—[Boston Globe.

Potatoes In Oregon. ..4

Many farmers have given up all idea of finding a market for their potatoes. Dealers say that at least three-fourths of the entire crop remains in the hands of the producers. Of course potatoes cannot be had for nothing in this city, but dealers are supplied, and a farmer bringing in any quantity could not find a market for them at a price which would pay for the sacks and hauling. So many farmers are literally throwing potatoes away. Mr. Tyszkiewicz, of Bachelor island, has dumped 350 sacks of as fine Burbanks as ever were seen into the Columbia.— [Portland Oregonian.
